as you know you dont make money back on mods, or not all of it.

so your making 1100 quid minimum for what you have done, which isnt what you have spent but as a whole car a 51 plate 180 isnt worth 3k, infact i struggle to see £2500 but the fact it has a diff is what does it for me, but then again i can get a type b for 150 quid and same again for fitting..

if you broke it you would get

box with diff £600
wheels £ 300
Engine £450
manifolds £250
Zorst £120
interior £100
springs £100
bmc £130
brakes £80
bits and bobs £100
then bodywork which probably wouldnt fetch as much as you think.

that totals £2230 i think.. plus the greif of breaking it!! i dont think its as desirable as you may think imo of corse

£2500 it is yours Ross...........need to replace the rear brake caliper.........soon as I have done that you can come collect it.

Jim

Unfortunately not dude as I can't get into the car properly. I sit too high above the windscreen and can't read the dash properly either........plus I have no legroom and with a roof on I am likely to start having panic attacks again lol

Shame really as the F was always the car I wanted from the start and the ZS hatch was kinda the only choice after that from the MG Rover range.......

I am in the process of losing weight again as I haven't been very well.......lost about a stone only another million to go :laugh:

Jim

Good for you Jim. You can go wrong keeping that zs!!!! its a great spec!!! TBH im quite pleased we didnt do a swap because I really dont need another car...lol

Jim, just keep the bloody zed and stop looking! In future if I see another for sale thread I'll lock it! :D

The only way you will better it is if you buy something different and spend silly amounts to keep it going, at least the ZS is cheap to maintain compared with other cars.

You're worse than a bird looking in a shoe shop window!

Cheers dude........... got a rear caliper on its way from ebay with a years warranty and ordered some centre caps for the wheels and just cleared the credit card for some coil overs from Mark at Silverstorm AI :icecream: oh and thinking about saving and sorting some throttle bodies for it too as I don't want to be owning this car a year or so more and to have to quickly fit another plenum...........

Anyway.............anyone got a spare engine kicking about for some modding? :p

Jim

I hope you have a big wallet for throttle bodies Jim.

The Jenvey set up dont fit under the bonnet of the zs, and the ones we used on Steves, are the ex WSR touring cars ones, and they cost a fortune.
